I am running XP home edition and have intstalled
everything on my computer with these drives and just
recently both my cdrom & cdburner will not autoplay or
read any cd's. Error says "disks not formatted for
windows" but if I play a game that looks for the cd it
recognizes the cd.

I've updated drivers still didn't help. Any suggestions?
